How should I treat the rust on the inside of the foot well. this area is one of those never exposed areas that hadn't been treated by the factory. Rust doesn't look bad and I probably can't do anything but treat it with some sort of rust inhibitor or encapsulator.
Don't worry about the holes I will get those all cleaned up and oval-ed out. Should those holes be chamfered to limit possible cracks? Attached thumbnail(s)

Get all the debris out and then soak it with a liberal amount of Eastwood Internal Frame Coating. Be prepared for it to find any opening and run out. Cavity wax to follow is a belts and suspenders approach, not sure it is needed but won’t hurt.
That Eastwood product is now SOP on any car I can get access to internal panels on. Used a couple cans on my GTV before I closed it back up. Edit - thanks for posting the video, don’t like the coverage on that first product. |
